Deregulated circular RNAs (circRNAs) in the hippocampus of a mouse model of kainic acid (KA)‐induced epilepsy. The mice progressed at least to stage 3 and were killed 3 d after seizures commenced. The hippocampus tissues were collected and the circRNA profiles were assessed. A, A heatmap showed 20 aberrantly expressed circRNAs, including 10 up‐regulated and 10 down‐regulated circRNAs in mice hippocampus with KA‐induced epilepsy compared with control samples (n = 3/group). Red represents high expression, whereas green represents low expression. B, RT‐qPCR verification of the expression of circRNA‐0000146 (circHivep2) in hippocampus tissues of mice with KA‐induced epilepsy as compared with controls (n = 10/group). C, RT‐qPCR verification of the expression of circHivep2 in BV‐2 microglial cells after KA treatments for 2 or 12 h
